Joy,
Yes as far as all the information around here, that is true about great statesman John C. Calhoun and that scumbag Abe Lincoln.
The Lincoln family tried to cover it up and burned Abe's papers and some books that were written.
If you write me personally, I have some articles on that as I live about 12 miles from Craytonville, SC.
In fact if you go to http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/ and type some of those names in you will find lots on that too.
I have some of this Hanks/Calhoun/Lincoln in the below outline.

Hi folks,
Being a descendant of ole John C., I was amused at this article that appeared
in the Charleston Post and Courier this am..April 12, 2005.

"OLD RUMOR
Calhoun's history as 19th-century defender of slavery, hater of taxes and The
Great Nullifier of federal laws is well-known.
A Friend of GMLc (name of article) from Camden, however, recently leaked to
us the Old Rumor about John C. Calhoun and Abraham Lincoln. Maybe it's
well-known, too, but we'd never heard of it.
Lincoln's early years have had a lot of press recently thanks to new
biographies, one of which claims Honest Abe was gay. (We don't think so.)
South Carolina families around Abbeville, where Calhous was born, or
Craytonville, where our story takes place, have handed a story down generation to
generatin that speculates on Lincoln's VERY EARLY years.
It goes like this:
Around 1807, Ann Hanks owned a tavern in Craytonville, about halfway between
Anderson and Abbeville. Her neice, Nancy Hanks, was a barmaid there.
Calhoun, a Yale graduate and a young lawyer in Pendleton and Abbeville,
stopped at the tavern frequently, chatted up the lovely Nancy, took her on buggy
rides and go her pregnant. The Hankses asked for money. To avoid scandal,
Calhoun hired a man named Thomas Lincoln, who worked for a stock driver named
Abraham Enloe, to take pregnant Nancy out of this tate in his one-horse wagon.
Tom and Nancy settled in a log cabin in Kentucky. They named the baby
Abraham, after Lincoln's employer.
Therefore, according to this tabloid version of history, Lincoln was the
illegitmate son of John C. Calhoun!
(We don't think so).
Most sources say Nancy Hanks Lincoln was from what is now West Virginia, not
South Carolina. Lincoln wrote that both his parents were from Virginia.
Nancy Hanks Lincoln died when Abe was 10 years old from milk sickness, poisining
by milk from cows that have eaten white snakeroot."

From my knowledge, some of this is true and it encompasses some of the North
Carolina myth as well.
